I'm a licensed nurse in Quebec and I live in Vermont (really close to the border!). I've been working with CGFNS and VT bord of nursing to get licensed in Vermont for a year and a half now, and I am finally at the stage where I am asked to register for the NCLEX.
In the registration form, they ask me where I graduated. For countries, Canada is listed as a choice. Great. But then Quebec doesn't exist as a province?? Also, in their list of program code for North America, there is no code provided for the entire province of Quebec. I am denied registration because of this issue. I called Pearson Vue (registration people), NCSBN, Vermont Board of Nursing and Quebec's board of nurses, they ALL tell me to ask somebody else, playing ping-pong with me.
I can't believe I'm the first Quebec nurse to go through this. Anybody has had this issue before?
